OVERVIEW:

A boy who has always believed in the fairness of sport and in the discipline of the martial arts. An evil loan shark who has no respect for anyone. A sordid former policeman who has turned into an organizer of underground fights. A mysterious girl who seems to be made of the same substance of the night.

Night Wolf is an action noir movie set against the disenchanted atmosphere of a big city's suburbs and the mysterious intricacies of the violence that fills the nights of the modern gladiators. Whether it is for money or for fame, these men will fight in underground arenas, abandoned factories, and dungeons illuminated by neon light, where every night the pagan rite of the fighter's glory is celebrated.

Nothing is what it seems in this dark and immoral universe, and the path towards glory might result in an unstoppable fall into perdition for which there is no way back.

It's easy, too easy, to game away your soul in this world of shadows and blood, of sweat and flesh, of ambition and cruelty!
